OFFICIAL World Champs - Day 4 LIVE Discussion Thread

Crapkenhaus!

And garcía...vroom vroom, all the way back to Spain!

We have a new star lol

Again, good tactical race from Hoppel, safety-first in the heat. Doesn't look good for a medal though

Not qualifying in the 800m heats. 💀

Apparently he wanted to gift his competition 10-12 meters.

Haven´t the youngsters any sense of smart running?

Strand, Hocker and now Cooper.

When I ran my first 800m I knew from watching numerous races on tele that I should try to take the place behind the front runner trying to stay there until the finish.

And if the runner doesn´t want to go to the front immediately then hug the rail until the 500m mark and then move.

Hoppel working too hard

Not a good.sign

Hocker level tactics, pace maker in a race where you don't run the legs off of the field, leaving you vulnerable in the final 100m.

Had enough strength for the heats, can't do that in the semis.

WTF is this supposed to mean?

I think Cooper ran at least 816 m. running in lane 2 for one lap is 408m.

That's just where he is this year. He's not in 1:41 shape so he has to fight through these rounds. He's doing well if he makes the final. It's all on Donny B for the US now

With all due respect, you too might find your objective knowledge difficult to execute in a World Championships race. But it’s nice to know your expertise is superior to those who actually qualified for this meet.

Easy for Wanyonyi.

Wanyonyi showing them how you do it whilst looking comfortable.

So many empty seats! Tokyo is a bust!

Palestinian guy bombed

Burgin looking solid.

Medal contender there.

Burgin looked good there, seemed to know he had more than enough for this field. Worked well with Masalela to make that easier than it looked on paper

What did you expect? He's one of those charity entries. And where's he supposed to train? Running through the rubble??

Surprised Crestan made that look hard work.
